Hello Nigel,

I don't know whether Ballachrink Cottage was a farmhouse. My grandfather was a labourer so it could have gone with the job, although as I said previously, it looks far too big to be a labourer's cottage and maybe several families lived there. The cottage was in Ramsey, up near the "White Bridge"I was told.
I will gladly send you a copy of the photo if you are interested or is there somewhere on the IOM web site I can post it?
